Before I went bungee jumping, I did some research to make sure that I was prepared. I read about the different types of bungee jumping, and I watched videos of people jumping. I also talked to my friends who had already been bungee jumping.
I learned that there are two main types of bungee jumping⁚ platform jumps and bridge jumps. Platform jumps are made from a fixed structure, such as a tower or a crane.

Once I had chosen a company, I booked my jump online. I had to provide my name, address, phone number, and email address. I also had to choose a jump time. I decided to jump in the morning because I wanted to avoid the crowds.
The day before my jump, I received a confirmation email from the company. The email included my jump time, my jump location, and my jump instructions. I also received a link to a video that showed me how to prepare for my jump.
On the day of my jump, I arrived at the bungee jumping site early. I checked in with the staff and signed a waiver. I then watched the safety video and listened to the jump master’s instructions.
I was then fitted with a harness and a helmet. The harness was attached to the bungee cord. I was also given a pair of goggles to wear.
I was then led to the jump platform. I climbed to the top of the platform and took a deep breath. I was ready to jump.
The Jump
